Hey guys, it’s Shauna, correspondent for Without Bags. I’m finally on dry land. I’m currently in the Hotel Thon in Kirkenes.

It’s crazy to me. I’ve been on the boat, on the postal ship, for about a week, and the earth, now that I’m on dry land, the earth is still kind of moving, just kind of ever so gently swaying. I have never been on a cruise … If you’ve been watching some of our other videos … never, ever been on a boat, and actually like lived on a boat like that before. Certainly an experience. Once I got my sea legs, a couple days in, life was pretty good, but very, very different. I’m very, very happy to be on dry land.

Couple of things here … I’ll give you guys the view outside my window, which is absolutely fantastic … Let’s see if I can get the camera turned around here for you … I mean, this is where I’m at. I’m in a very nice warm room, which I know sounds kind of crazy but the boat was a little cold. Very nice, warm room overlooking the ocean here, the Barents Sea.

Then I’ll give you guys the view of the room. I can’t believe how much space I have. I know this looks like a very simple room, but on the boat, my room was probably like to the edge of this gray thing, that was the width, and maybe back to where I’m standing, so what, maybe eight or nine feet wide by about 10 feet long, something like … I am so happy, I can actually stretch my arms out. Yay, I can stretch my arms out. I can stretch my arms out and not touch anything. This is fantastic.

Anyway, I am going to go do a little bit of exploring in Kirkenes. Apparently the whole city, the whole main part of the city is … There’s about 3,500 people that live right in Kirkenes, and about 10,000 people that live, kind of in this general vicinity. So I’m going to go roam around the city center, which apparently is about 10 buildings wide, and there’s a shopping mall on one end, and then two streets up and that’s it.

I’m going to go do that. It’s currently about 12:30 in the afternoon here. Had a fantastic … If you guys just watched the crab adventure, learned a lot, actually, about the King Crab. They were originally brought here by the Russians, from north of Japan. They grabbed about, I think they said 10 trips of 10,000 crabs each, so 100,000 crabs. Shipped them across Russia and dropped them off here, north of Norway, into the ocean, to the Barents Sea here, and wanted them to reproduce. And that is where all the King Crab generally comes from now.

I have to tell you, King Crab, I have never had … I mean, I’ve had King Crab at home in Arizona, but obviously Arizona is not the best for seafood. This is probably the best crab ever eaten, ever. Probably helps that I was out actually fishing and pulling up nets and stuff earlier. You know, when you’re hungry it always tastes better.

Anyway, really, really excited to be here and yeah, so, I guess I’m going to go roam around Kirkenes and if there’s anything interesting and fascinating for you guys to learn about, I will do another live video. I will talk to you guys soon. All right, thanks. Bye.
